A drop in temperatures and increase in rain is just about here

Valley temps drop into the 60s for Thursday

We have seen consistent 90's since last week but Wednesday and Thursday bring cooler weather and rain to Idaho.

A low pressure trough is moving in as the P.M. arrives for Idaho and as the day continues on, expect higher chances of rain and thunderstorm activity closer to the commute back home. Temperatures will stick to the 70's in the treasure valley and even cooler into the 60's on Thursday.

The rain is much needed to help first responders fighting wildfire activity but we will watch as this could also bring high winds and if some of the rain misses some of the fire, we could see fires grow.

Oregon will see a good amount of rain before Idaho which will positively impact their wildfire season and out air quality. After the system passes, the weekend should be a gorgeous one with 70's and low 80's with partly cloudy conditions.

Make sure to stay tuned into the Idaho news 6 weather cast to keep up with changing conditions.
